Design Verification Engineer

THE ROLE:

The focus of this role is to plan, build, and execute the verification of new and existing features for AMD s graphics processor IP, resulting in no bugs in the final design.

THE PERSON:

You have a passion for modern, complex processor architecture, digital design, and verification in general. You are a team player who has excellent communication skills and experience collaborating with other engineers located in different sites/timezones. You have strong analytical and problem-solving skills and are willing to learn and ready to take on problems.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Collaborate with architects, hardware engineers, and firmware engineers to understand the new features to be verified
• Estimate the time required to write the new feature tests and any required changes to the test environment
• Build the directed and random verification tests
• Debug test failures to determine the root cause; work with RTL and firmware engineers to resolve design defects and correct any test issues
• Analyze and enhance legacy test plans to accommodate new Design for Debug feature developments
• Perform debug triage of failures from simulation and emulation environments for CORE and sub-level regressions
• Develop assembly tests, C++ checkers to support new features
• Write complex Perl scripts to update simulation files in a deterministic manner
• Recreate post-silicon failures in pre-silicon environment
• Debug and resolve test cases in assembly language
• Conduct silicon debug and root cause analysis with minimal logging support
• Scope new features and execute comprehensive test planning cycles
• Utilize JTAG protocols for debugging and validation

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

• 8+ years of experience in ASIC Design Verification with strong computer architecture knowledge
• Expert-level understanding of CPU architecture, L2/L3 cache architectures, and processor subsystems (x86 or ARM)
• Proficiency in C++ and assembly language programming
• Advanced Perl scripting capabilities
• Deep knowledge of digital design, RTL design, and verification flows
• Strong troubleshooting and analytical debugging skills with ability to debug without logs
• Experience with OOP concepts
• Post-silicon debugging experience preferred
• Ability to quickly adapt to complex infrastructure environments
• Excellent hands-on debug skills and attention to detail
• Proficient in debugging firmware and RTL code using simulation tools
• Experienced with Verilog, System Verilog, C, and C++
• Scripting language experience: Perl, Ruby, Makefile, shell preferred.
• Exposure to leadership or mentorship is an asset

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:

• Bachelors or Masters degree in computer engineering/Electrical Engineering
